Single Tear
Belching Beaver Pub 980

an all mosaic hazy, and a really good glass of beer. for years i thought these guys were just about a gimmicky peanuty butter beer, but as i have gotten hip to a little bit more of their stuff, i am totally on board, they make some great beers, and this is an excellent hoppy offering. its real pale, yellow colored and cloudy but still attractive looking under an average white head but with pronounced ring lace as it sips. aroma is pure mosaic, pineapple from the can, lemongrass, and a hint of raw coconut, sexy an simple, with a wheaty base it seems to me, although i dont know what they use for sure, it just has that dry cereal flavor and the protein rich feel, with a fluffy uplifting vibe where it has body but is light, like what wheat does in beer usually. the hops slay, and i am very back and forth on mosaic in a single hop dry hop forward context like this, but this one really works, they tease out the best of it while leaving its worst elements behind, no catty anything, no green oily bite, just a pure fruity dynamic, coconut and pineapple, a little honey too, and a light weedy bud sort of note. its smooth in feel and really fresh in my experience. i could drink plenty of these and have been increasingly impressed with belching beaver! dont sleep on these guys!
